Breaking Bad — which also won the category last year along with Aaron Paul, who won Best Supporting Actor on Television — faced heavy competition for this year’s award: TNT’s The Closer and Leverage, Showtime’s Dexter, SyFy’s Eureka, Starz’ Spartacus: Blood and Sand and HBO’s True Blood were also nominated.

Also a big winner at last night’s ceremony was AMC’s drama The Walking Dead, which walked home with the trophy for Best Television Presentation. In addition, the series’ Writer/Director/Executive Producer Frank Darabont received the prestigious George Pal Memorial Award for his twenty-five year body of genre work.
